LCSW

Female

Hello! I'm Vanessa, and I've been practicing counseling since 1997. I am licensed in Florida, New York, and Massachusetts. My journey in the field began with a graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University in Florida in 1999, followed by an MSW from the NYU School of Social Work in 2003. My style is warm, attentive, collaborative, and non-judgmental, but I can also be very active and directive when needed. I consider myself a good leader, fair, and impartial, helping guide you to new ways of being in a relationship without aligning with one person over the other.

You are welcome to explore any variety of issues in a safe, empathic, affirming environment. I have extensive experience working with couples, families, blended families, LGBTQ+ couples and families, open relationships, and non-monogamy. Whether you're dealing with addiction, anxiety, depression, or navigating life transitions, I am here to support you.

In my spare time, I love to read and explore poetry, and I have a deep love of animals and animal rescue. If you're looking for a compassionate and experienced therapist to help you through your journey, I invite you to reach out. Let's work together to find the path to a healthier and more fulfilling life.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
